CONTAINER.

Specification of Letters Patent. 3 Patented March 30, 1909.

Application filed May 5, 1908. Serial N 0.430343.

aha-1' mm '2'! m y concern.

Belt known that I, MAJOR DANE PORTYER,

10 its novelty consists in the means employed wherebythe'container may be opened after *havin been sealed. y A

. Int e drawings, Figure 1 is a central ver- .-';tical section of a container embodying my :5 invention ;Fig. 2 is a similar view on a smaller scale eta. different form of'container, and Fig. '3 is a plan view of the severing or rup- 'turin -cord or wire. g 1 In ig. 1' of the drawings, is a container .20 in the shape of a squat wide mouthed bottle made of wood pulp, or similar plastic material. It is; restricted at 11 to form a neck 12 terminatin in a month 14 and is provided with a cor for stoppe'r13.

14 and after the contents of .the bottle are in place is-pref'erably secured in its position by "glue or cement so that it can not be removed.

' InFi'g. 2, I have shown a slightly modified 3.0 form, the neck being omitted and the stopper 130 inserted directly into the cylindrical L body 100. The cord orwire 159 is. also inserted in the body.

I In the. rocess'of forming the container a 4 35' cord or'wire 15 is wound around the neck of This'latter fits- I snugly against the inner surface of the mouth However the container is filled and sealed, when it has once been closed it is practically an integral structure without an opening. When now'it is desired to open the container the cord or wire 15 is seized by its projecting end and is unwound. Each turn as it is unwound interrupts the continuity of the surface in which it is embedded and finally ruptures the structure so that the stopper and the mouth of the container above that point may readily be removed.

What I claim as new is:

1. A container made of plastic material and provided with a cord, or wire, embedded in its structure in a pluralit Y of turns, so that .the containerisdestroyed y the unwinding of the cord or wire.

2. A container having an open top, a stopper ada ted to be secured therein and a cord embed edin the. container by a plurality of turns below the stopper.

3. A container having a cord, or wire, embedded in its substance and made substantially integral therewith, the cord or wire being wound in surfaces substantially concentric with the cross sectional contourof the container. v

4. A container having a cord, or wire, embedded therein and made integral, the cord or Wire being wound so that its successive turns are arranged in difierent planes, each of which is at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the container.

5. A container having an open top, a stopper adapted to be secured therein and a cord embedded in the container by a plurality of turns below the stopper, the innermost turn being nearest the stop er.

Witness my hand t is 28th day of April, 1908, at Lewiston in the county of Niagara and State of New York.
